Chapter 534 I'm always using your money, how embarrassed
Readers in North America and the UK said they had never seen such a short pz.
They rarely see Zhang Zhong's short stories, and the ones that can be translated into English for them are at least tens of thousands of words. However, this magazine is different. There are several Zhang Zhong's short stories in it.
[I had already taken off my pants, and then it suddenly stopped and broke into pieces.]
This barrage was in English, but it made Chinese netizens laugh, because Zhang Zhong has many fans at home and abroad. Over time, foreign netizens also learned some jokes when communicating with domestic readers.
[The beginning is pretty good, but it’s not that amazing.]
[The back part is really good, I’ll keep it for the old readers who have been following it for a year. 】
[I have been following this book for a year, and the more I read it, the better it gets. 】
[I actually wanted to go to the Internet to see how people read those spells.]
[The overseas version has just released the first issue, and you can’t see the spell part at all.]
[It doesn’t matter, we can teach you some spells first. Come on, I’ll send you a voicemail. 】
…
In fact, the overseas version is not exactly the same as the domestic version. The overseas version of "Harry Potter" is more updated than the domestic version.
This has been the case since the first issue, and it will be a little more in each subsequent issue.
The reason for this is to slowly narrow the gap between foreign readers and domestic readers.
The purpose of narrowing the gap between the two sides is to prepare for the unified global distribution of the single volume. If the foreign language single volume is released by then and the magazine has not finished serializing the first volume, I am afraid it will affect the magazine's sales.
So I'm afraid it will take a long time for the single volume to be published.
There are already film and television teams working on the idea of "Harry Potter". These teams are both domestic and foreign, and many of them are well-known companies at home and abroad.
If we can reach an agreement, the movie may be released before the single book is released.
Not only "Harry Potter", Zhang Zhong also intends to release some books recently. Although the company is engaged in film and television, it cannot eat a fat man in one bite. It is better to use film and television adaptations to attract some teams to come over and give up part of the profits.
, so that the work can be quickly turned into a film and television, and experience can be learned during this period.
A team from the company was stationed at the filming site of "The Last Starfish Man". The main task of this team was to learn the advanced experience of the crew and become familiar with the shooting process. When the company does its own work in the future, these things can be used.
"Do People Dream of Electric Sheep?" came from behind. Although it was released shortly, the negotiations for its film and television adaptation have entered the final stage. Now the two parties are entangled in the distribution of benefits. As long as one party takes a step back first, or both parties can
If you take a half step back, this should be done.
The reason why this book can be talked about so quickly is because the script produced by director Firmino is very complete and exciting.
Although Firmino insisted on adding love into the story, which is different from the original work, I have to say that after his changes, it is indeed more attractive to ordinary audiences.
Zhang Zhong is not too opposed to love scenes, as long as the love element does not take over the focus and dominates the scene, it will be fine.
When a novel is adapted into a movie, the key is not the plot, but the core of the story. As long as the core of the story is still there and perfectly presented, then other different artistic methods are acceptable.
For example, the movie "District 9" is very different from "Metamorphosis" in terms of storyline. However, everyone still feels that this movie is adapted from "Metamorphosis". It is no longer as simple as a tribute, it is completely
It's just an adaptation.
Why?
Because the core of the story is exactly the same.
If nothing else happens, Chen Qing may reach an agreement with Firmino within a week.
Firmino is just a science fiction film director, so when discussing specific terms, Firmino can only watch from the sidelines. Chen Qing mainly talks with Firmino's financial backer, Wenner Entertainment.
Wenner acted arrogant and generous at the beginning. On the one hand, they said they would only accept the copyright to buy out the film and television rights, but on the other hand, they said they could pay royalties of up to several million US dollars.
Chen Qing definitely disagrees. It doesn't matter whether it's money or not. If the film and television rights are bought out, then they won't be allowed to play with them in the future.
Therefore, Chen Qing expressed his intention to jointly develop this novel in a cooperative manner.
Chen Qing also told people at Wenner Entertainment Company what Zhang Zhong said.
"We are willing to help you bear the risks that may arise from changing the novel to the movie. Is there anything else you are not happy with?"
Yes, we want to cooperate in developing novels. It doesn't mean that we are not satisfied with the millions of dollars. It's just that we are more benevolent and want to help you bear some of the risk of losses.
If the movie ends up losing money, don't be afraid, Wenner, we are here to help you support it.
Of course Wenner didn't believe such nonsense, but Chen Qing was able to speak Zhang Zhong's words openly and righteously in front of them, catching them off guard.
Zhang Zhong's attitude is not tough, but they have never given in on this matter.
Perhaps after this cooperation is completed, other companies that want to cooperate with Zhang Zhong in the future must first consider whether they can accept such conditions.
…
"Dad, what is my bank card password?"
When Zhang Zhong was reading an email from his future father-in-law Xu Wenxuan in the study, Pengpeng suddenly ran in with her children's bank card.
"Why do you ask this?" Zhang Zhong asked curiously.
This bank card was issued to her before to store her manuscript fees, but after the card was applied for, it has been kept in Pengpeng's drawer. Zhang Zhong almost forgot about the existence of this card.
"Liu Minya gave me a bamboo flute, and I also want to give her a set of paintbrushes."
Zhang Chongxin said that you two little sisters are in love with each other? It is obvious that Pengpeng has no interest in music and no talent, but Minya gave her a bamboo flute.
As for Minya, although she has been studying painting, her painting skills are average, and she doesn't really love it. Instead, she loves musical instruments, but Pengpeng wants to give her a set of paintbrushes.
Logically speaking, shouldn't it be the other way around, with Pengpeng giving her a bamboo flute and she giving Pengpeng a paintbrush?
Why suffer for best friends?
But this is not important. What is important is that Pengpeng actually thought of taking his own bank card.
"What do you want to give as a gift? Dad will help you buy [Xinbiquge www.xsbiquge.vip]."
Pengpeng shook his head and said, "Dad, I'm so embarrassed to always use your money."
If her voice wasn't so childish, Zhang Zhong would have thought it was an adult talking to him. This girl is becoming more and more fond of pretending to be like adults.
"Okay, how much money do you want to withdraw to buy a gift for Minya? I will accompany you to the bank." Zhang Zhong asked.
"I want to buy her a better one. Is there enough money here?" Pengpeng asked worriedly.
